Teens’ Heart – Episode 19

Chapter 19

 

Alexandra ‘s POV

 

I woke up the next day feeling like I don’t wanna go to that school.

 

I dragged myself out of my bed and knelt down beside it, to do my every morning prayer.

 

“Dear Father, Thank you for your love. Thank you for sending your Angels to watch over me all through the night and thank you for making me see a brand new day. Be with me today like you’ve always do in Jesus name I’ve prayed, Amen.” I stood up and with sluggish steps, I walked into the bathroom. My dull, sleepy eyes appeared in the mirror.

 

My hair is just messy.

 

I yawned and rubbed my eyes with my finger.

 

I wondered how today is gonna be, in school with such arrogant and devils around.

 

“Alex dear. Are you awake?” I heard Lili’s voice.

 

“Goodmorning Lili.” I said, taking out my toothbrush.

 

“You’re in the bathroom?” She asked.

 

“Yea.” I said.

 

“What would you love to take for breakfast?” “Coffee, bread and some butter.” I said. “Alright dear.” She said.

 

 

inhaled. I love Lili.

 

She’s just a nice Aunty to me.

 

She really care about my happiness and try to do only what makes me happy.

 

Im happy to be here in Florida, with her and im happy to meet Steph as well, They are just great but that arrogant peacock just wanna make me so mad and sad.

 

Just yesterday, my first day in that school and that brat had to put that smelly lips oh his on mine.

 

Okay, it’s not smelly anyway, but I can’t bear thinking about it.

 

I touched my lips.

 

My first kiss had to be with him. Why? It makes me wanna cry out so loud.

 

Why’s he such a stupid punk?

 

I shut my eyes, opened them back and shook my head.

 

I’ll just go on to brush my teeth.

 

And I did.

 

……………………………………

 

……………………………………

 

After taking my bathe, dressing up and dressing my hair. I walked out of my room and to the kitchen.

 

I met Lili in the kitchen in a flowery pyjamas. She really love flowery clothes.

 

She was cleaning the kitchen counter and I walked up to her and kissed on her on the cheek.

 

Muahh

 

She turned and smiled.

 

“Alex dear. Oh you are dressed up already. Lemme make the coffee for you now. Go sit down ok.” She said going for the kettle on the cooker.

 

I walked to the breakfast bar, pulled out a chair and sat down.

 

I watched her pour the hot water into a tea cup and got out the coffee pack from the fridge.

 

“When are you starting work Lili?” I asked. “Soon dear.” She said with a smile.

 

I love how strong she is.

 

After loosing her baby and loosing her husband too.

 

She’s on Leave due to her husband’s death and its been three months now. Im sure soon, she’ll start work back.

 

She’s a nurse.

 

She brought the coffee to me and the bread with a butter cup.

 

“Steph would soon be here. I have to hurry up.” I said as grabbed the butter and pasted it on the bread..

 

“Are you comfortable with Steph driving you to school?” She asked. Huh?

 

“Ofcourse. Im fine with it. I like Steph.” I said.

 

She smiled.

 

“Alright darling.” She said.

 

I took a bite from bread and drank from the coffee.

 

Its delicious.

 

“Yeah. Its just too sweet and too sugary.” I said.

 

She nodded.

 

……………………………………………

 

Just when I was done eating, Steph drove by and horned.

 

She’s always horning like a school bus.

 

Hahaha..

 

I gulped down the remaining coffee and ran off to my room.

 

Grabbed my school bag, my phone and ran off.

 

I walked into the car and Steph smiled at me.

 

“Hi Steph.” I said.

 

She smiled.

 

“Alex you always look great.” She said.

 

“You too.” I said.

 

Then she yawned.

 

“You’re hungry?” I asked.

 

Im sure it can’t be.

 

“Just a bit dizzy.” She asked.

 

“You didn’t you have enough rest?” I asked.

 

“Uh..um.. I had to read half of the night.” She said.

 

“Oh, that’s great.” I said.

Once we were in school, Steph took me to Ms Ashley for a change of seat.

 

“Ms Ashley, I need Alex seat to be changed.” Steph said.

 

“Why?” She asked.

 

“Cos Jeremy was a distraction to her all through yesterday.” Steph said.

 

“Is that true Alexandra?” Ms Ashley turned to me.

 

“Yeah. I don’t want to sit beside him. I wanna be far from him. He’s a distraction.” I said.

 

She stayed silent fo a while…

 

“Alex. Im sorry but you’ll have to sit there for today. If he distracts you again today, then its a promise that your seat would surely be changed and you and him would no longer sit close okay?.” She said.

 

What?

 

“Im sure he’s gonna be rude to her again today!. Just change her seat Ms Ashley.” Steph snapped.

 

Ms Ashley frowned a bit at Steph.

 

“Stephanie, you ain’t Alexandra in anyway. You should allow her say her own mind. Don’t speak for her please.” Ms Ashley said.

 

Steph and I glanced at each other.

 

“But she’s my friend and I have her approval. Just change her seat. She can’t sit beside that arrogant punk today.” Steph said.

 

“Don’t talk of our dear Jeremy in such a way.” Ms Ashley said.

 

Their dear Jeremy?

 

Arghh, Funny people.

 

“Alex. Are you accepting to sit beside that punk today after all he did to you yesterday?” Steph asked me.

 

I don’t even know what to answer.

 

I just nodded.

 

“I’ll just sit there today and If he distracts me. Im so not sitting there again.” I said.

 

Ms Ashley smiled.

 

Why did she smile?

 

“Thats good Alex. Now Steph you are okay with that?” She asked.

 

“Why should I be?” She snapped.

 

“Ah Stephanie.” Ms Ashley laughed.

 

“Let’s go Alex.” Steph said and pulled me out of Ms Ashley’s office.

 

#

 

“Why did you have to accept to sit with that arrogant thing today huh?” Steph yelled at me just as we closed the office door.

 

Why’s she yelling?

 

“Don’t yell. Let’s just see how it goes today. Im sure he was rude because yesterday was just my first day.” I said.

 

She shrugged.

 

“Alright. Im sorry for yelling. I just hate the punk and I don’t want him getting on

 

your nerves today again.” She said.

 

“Its okay. I’ll handle it.” I said.

# Lili ‘s POV

 

I was mopping the sitting room when my phone rang.

 

I walked to the table and picked it up.

 

Ashley.

 

Ashley?

 

I picked the call.

 

“Hi Ashley.” I said.

 

“Lilian.” She said.

 

“Yes Ashley, how is Alex. Is she okay?” I asked.

 

“Yeah. She is. She came with her friend just few minutes ago and complained about Jeremy giving her distractions yesterday and she’s asking for her seat to be changed. I couldn’t just do it so I had to tell her to sit there for today and if he distracts her again today, then im gonna change her seat.” She said.

 

Oh dear.

 

“Oh dear is Jeremy that rude? Oh Ashley. I should not have asked you to put her seat close to his right? I only wanted them to be close. I thought he’s gonna be a great friend to Alex.” I said.

 

“Its okay Lilian. I’ll see what I can do about it. I would change her seat if he disturbs her today. Should I?” She asked.

 

“Yes please. Alex happiness matters to me alot. Thank you Ashley.”

 

“Alright. bye.”

 

“Bye.”

 

The call dropped.

 

“Oh Alex dear. Im so sorry. I thought Jeremy is a sweet boy to make friends with. Im sorry he had to be a distraction to you. I shouldn’t have asked Ashley to make your seat close to him. Im sorry.”
